ONE MONTH POST-OP APPOINTMENT FOR LBL

Jan 06, 2010

I saw my surgeon (who did my lower body lift) on Tuesday for a 1-month post-op.  As I suspected, I had a seroma on the left side.  Dr. Dry put in another drain and within 10 minutes over 800 cc had drained out.  I couldn't believe how much better it felt - I hadn't realized how much pressure it had been causing.  Both drains should be out within a few weeks - thank goodness!  Anyway, everything is healing well - the incisions will hardly be seen!  Dr. Dry is the greatest!  As are his staff.  I only wish he were closer to me. 

On another note, I now easily fit into size 16 pants - and even a few 14's!  1981 was the last time I wore that size.  Once the swelling goes down, I'm sure it will be even smaller. 

I started back to work Monday (off Tuesday for the trip to Kirkland), but have only been able to work 2-3 hours a day so far.  Get exhausted so easily!  Hopefully I'll be full time by next week.
